Abstract :
Some recently developed evolutionary programming (EP) techniques for the optimal reactive power flow (ORPF) problem are investigated. By comparing the performances of four control schemes of the strategy parameter (CSSPs), two principles for designing effective CSSPs are identified and are further used to develop two improved CSSPs. The effectiveness of the Levy distribution based technique of adaptive fast EP is also studied. The investigations are conducted with simulations on the ORPF problems of the IEEE 14-, 30- and 118-bus standard test systems.
